Description
The product of heavy government investment, the Koschei was the second BattleMech produced in the Capellan Confederation, produced by Earthwerks Incorporated on Tikonov. The first Koscheis, the -3I variant, were produced in 2504. The KSC-3I carries an Autocannon/10 and twin Medium Lasers, which along with its high ground speed made it an effective skirmisher for its time. It was later outclassed and largely retired, except for backwater militias and broke Periphery forces.

Description
The Koschei-3P is a rarer periphery design sometimes seen in more decorated forces. After obtaining ancient Koschei-3I's through discovery of sealed caches there was a dilemma. The original design, while fast for It's weight, was a product of a much simpler time, and its age was showing. Despite that, it was a heavy mech, and those are premium commodities all the way out here, so it was decided that some elbow grease and a few extra C-bills could be spared. The Koschei-3P's biggest, and most expensive difference is the removal of It's standard engine for a prototype XL. The armor plating was also changed to Heavy Plating Armor, giving a notable increase in armor protection. The weaponry was removed in favor of an ammo feed modified Heavy Cannon with three tons of ammo while the lasers were replaced with a pair of Medium Binary Lasers, and backup Small Lasers.

Description
An oft-forgotten design, the Koschei was an excellent candidate for upgrading with 'modern' Periphery technologies. Built off the skeleton of the KSC-3I, the -3PA mounts twin Medium Rifles and twin Medium Binary Lasers for no-ammo firepower. While not a stellar design, the Koschei proved effective and cheap.

Description
The product of heavy government investment, the Koschei was the second BattleMech produced in the Capellan Confederation, produced by Earthwerks Incorporated on Tikonov. As advanced technology began proliferating during the Star League era, the Confederation turned their gaze to the Koschei for upgrades, sparing no expense. Armed with a LB-10X Autocannon and a brace of Medium and Medium Pulse Lasers, the -4I is built with Endo-Steel and Ferro-Fibrous materials, making it cutting edge for the time.

Description
As part of the Trinity Alliance, the Magistracy of Canopus acquired plans for the Koschei in the 3060s. Majesty Metals and Manufacturing produces the -5MC at Dunianshire. Armed with a Rotary Autocannon/5 and ER Large Laser for primary firepower, the -5MC is a threat at any range thanks to its back-up weapons array: a Snub-Nose PPC and 5 ER Small Lasers. Endo-Steel, Light Ferro-Fibrous armor, and an XL Engine provide the weight for the heavy weapons load. 14 DHS strive, in vain, to keep it all cool.
